I'm possibly going to buy a boat that is about 300 miles from my location.
The boat is currently financed which means no clear title.
Before I head off into the sunset, I'd like to know what I can expect/demand to insure I can drive away without a major mess.
My first thought is that we can all show up at the bank, pass some cash and have the title signed over to me after which I can apply for a new one.
However, I don't know if that is too much to expect from the bank on short notice. There also is the possibility that the bank in question could be out of town.
Any recommendations on how I can cover my butt on this transaction??
